Stop 3
Short drive to Innsbruck. Picturesque and snazzy, on the pulse of nature and the city at the same time. That’s how Innsbruck, the capital of the Alps presents itself to its visitors. It fascinates with the beauty of nature surrounding it and its long history and traditions, that are interwoven with modern elements. And the charming Old Town, a classic Austrian hybrid of Gothic and Baroque. Explore Innsbruck’s greatest tourist attraction and certainly its most characteristic landmark: The Golden Roof, Hofburg (Empress Maria Theresa’s summer palace). Innsbruck’s Old Town is a small area of sturdy medieval houses, many attractively painted in pastel colors and supported by sloping earthquake buttresses. Time for lunch and sightseeing and maybe more shopping.
